Answer:

The answer to your question is 2 moles of AgCl

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

moles of AgCl = ?

moles of AgNO₃ = excess

moles of NaCl = 2 moles

Balanced chemical reaction

AgNO₃ + NaCl ⇒ NaNO₃ + AgCl

Process

To solve this problem use proportions and cross multiplication.

Use the coefficients of the balanced reaction

1 mol of NaCl ------------------- 1 mol of AgCl

2 moles of NaCl ---------------- x

x = (2 x 1) / 1

-Simplification

x = 2/1

-Result

x = 2 moles of AgCl
